Summary
Enables L-arginine transmembrane transporter activity; L-lysine transmembrane transporter activity; and L-ornithine transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in carboxylic acid transport and regulation of TOR signaling. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human SLC7A3 (solute carrier family 7 member 3).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
